One of the major features of the Constitution of the United States, and one of the main reasons it has been able to change with the times, is the principle of federalism developed by the founders at the Constitutional Convention. The federal government shares powers with the local (state) governments and both state and national government have powers unique unto themselves. Local governments are closer to the people than the federal government. Mayors, city council members, and citizens of a community or state, often know what legislation is needed at the local level before the federal government can become aware of the necessity for local laws. The federal government enacts laws for the entire nation and protects our nation militarily and regulates commerce. State and local governments build upon those laws at the local level. Americans have experienced, since colonial days, the independence to enact laws for their particular situation and locale. MrV
Making every person born in the country a citizen.
It depends on which country in America you are referring to. Some do not legislate against it, some legislate specifically in favour.

That would be a dictator.
The First Amendment. This amendment is important because it guarantees that you can speak your mind without fear of persecution from those who might not like what you say. The federalists feared that the government would dictate an individual's beliefs. They wanted to avoid a state-sponsored religion.(a religion picked by each state)They believed that a free press would mean that the people would be informed about what was going on in government and in the country, without the government's interference about what they did and didn't want to be put in newspapers, and so they could blind sight the people and the newspaper would only put what the government wanted to people to know.
England does not in fact have its own government. Its legislature is the United Kingdom parliament and its government is that of the United Kingdom.
The rights of the individual were established the founders of the country. This means the men who wrote the Constitution of the United States.

The country that the Plat Amendment was signed for was Cuba. It was an amendment that was signed in 1901 and called for the withdrawal of all remaining US troops in Cuba.
Without the 3rd amendment, the government and military would be allowed to force anyone living in the USA to house soldiers in their home and feed them while the country was in peace and not at war.
